Varicose Veins Treatment

Restless leg is a condition characterized by an urge to move the legs due to pain, uneasiness, cramping, which typically becomes worse at night and at rest with partial relief by movement or walking. Diagnosis is primarily based on history and physical examination, but it is imperative to rule out secondary causes. Secondarily it can occur due to distinct conditions such as iron deficiency anemia, pregnancy, end-stage renal disease, and venous disease . However, the direct etiology remains unclear.

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is a serious medical condition that occurs when a blood clot (thrombus) forms in a deep vein, typically in the legs. It can lead to serious complications if not treated promptly.

Uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat fibroid tumors of the uterus which can cause heavy menstrual bleeding, pain, and pressure on the bladder or bowel. It uses a form of real-time x-ray called fluoroscopy to guide the delivery of embolic agents to the uterus and fibroids. These agents block the arteries that provide blood to the fibroids and cause them to shrink. Studies have shown that nearly 90 percent of women who undergo UFE experience significant or complete resolution of their fibroid-related symptoms.

A Varicocele is an enlargement of veins within the scrotum (the loose pouch of skin that holds the testicles). These veins contain one-way valves that allow blood to flow from the scrotum/testicles and back to the heart. When the valves do not function properly, the blood pools in the veins. Pooling of blood in these veins causes them to enlarge thereby increasing internal pressure and temperature and possibly damaging the testicles and decreasing fertility.

All patients receiving hemodialysis require a permanent method of connection to remove toxins from their bodies. For those receiving hemodialysis, a graft or fistula, which join an artery and vein together, provides access for blood to flow to a hemodialyzer, where toxic waste is removed. However, the connection point can get clogged or dirty, and that can reduce the effectiveness of dialysis treatments and cause serious infections. Fortunately, the team at Unique Interventional Radiology can help patients keep their dialysis access points clean and clear.

Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a condition, in which a build-up of fatty deposits in the arteries which reduces the inner diameter of the vessel and restricts blood supply. It's also known as Peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
